Re^2: Match pattern per line and after another one as multiline in single file opening

[kennethk]

I read the description as he needs the [^}] to match through newlines, and so there needs to be a slurp before the regex. But your point about lack of test data is very appropriate.

[Laurent_R]

Yeah, I may have missed or overlooked the sentence about multiline match and I really wondered why the OP code was localizing $/, but given that the OP speaks about a config file and given the regexes used for matching the data, I am still not really convinced that there is an actual need for multiline match.

But it's impossible to say either way without the input data.
